Amazing Celebrity Look Alikes

Updated on November 21, 2014

They say there is a twin for everyone and for celebrities, there are some amazing look-alikes. In this article, I have compiled all my favorite amazing celebrity look-alikes. Most of the celebrity look-alikes in this list look like they could be twins or siblings.

1. Jennie Garth and Abbie Cobb

My number one, don’t miss it, celebrity look-alike, is Jennie Garth and Abbie Cobb. I saw Abbie Cobb is a move called Teenage Bank Heist, and I literally thought I was watching Jennie Garth as a young girl. She bears a striking resemblance to a young Jennie Garth (especially in this movie) and can pass as her daughter. She even sounds like her.

Jennie Garth’s most popular and longest role was Kelly Taylor on 90210 which she played for 10 years, from 1990 to 2000.

If you’ve never seen the original 90210, or if, like me, you watched it religiously, you will appreciate this video either way. This is a synopsis of “Kelly and Dylan” clips, falling in love in front of your eyes, and in the background is one of my all-time favorite songs which reminds me of 90210, Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover, by Sophie B. Hawkins:

Now, compare and see for yourself…here’s a trailer from Teenage Bank Heist with Abbie Cobb:

2. Helen Hunt and Leelee Sobieski

Leelee Sobieski bares a striking resemblance to a younger Helen Hunt, and looks like she can be her daughter. Leelee Sobieski has starred in such movies as Deep Impact (1998), Eyes Wide Shut (1999), and The Glass House (2001). She also starred in the Joan of Arc TV Movie (1999).

You may remember Genie Frances from the old General Hospital days when she and Anthony Geary portrayed the famous Luke and Laura back in 1981. She became an overnight success and the Luke and Laura wedding (even though it was fictional) made front page news around the country.

I first noticed the striking resemblance of a “young” Genie Frances and Amanda Schull when watching the the Lifetime Movie, “Betrayed”. Once again, I thought I was looking at Genie Frances’ twin. And again, I saw Amanda in the TV Movie “Hunt for the Labyrinth Killer”. They could be twins.

5. Julianne Moore and Mireille Enos

Julianne Moore has been in over 50 films including The Hand That Rocks the Cradle (1992), Nine Months (1995),The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997), and Non-Stop (2014). I also remember Julianne Moore in The Fugitive (1993), as the doctor who spotted Dr. Richard Kimble, (played by Harrison Ford) posing as a maintenance worker but looking at an x-ray and ultimately saving the child’s life.

Mireille Enos is not as well known as Julianne Moore and I first saw her on a talk show and noticed her striking resemblance to Julianne Moore. Mireille Enos was in the HBO drama series Big Love (2007-2010). She has appeared in films such as World War X (2013) and If I Stay (2014).

6. Emily Osment and Carry Underwood

Emily Osment is the sister of Haley Joel Osment (who, as a child, starred in the Sixth Sense). I first saw Emily in a TV movie called A Daughter's Nightmare (2014) and noticed how much she looked like Carrie Underwood. Emily is an actress and has been in numerous movies, but she is also a singer and songwriter.

Carrie Underwood is an American country music singer and songwriter who won the 4th season of American Idol, and then rose to stardom. She was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry in 2008 and into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in 2009. She has won numerous awards including 5 Grammy Awards, 11 Academy of Country Music Awards and 7 American Music Awards.

We all know Keanu Reeves from such movies as Speed (1994) and The Lake House (both with Sandra Bullock), The Matrix (1999), as well as the Bill and Ted adventure series.

Justin Long, who is a bit younger than Keanu Reeves, looks like a younger Keanu. He has starred in such films as Galaxy Quest (1998), Jeepers Creepers (2001), Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007), and Live Free or Die Hard (2007).

I have had this habit for years. Don't know why or how it started, but every new face of someone I meet, I mentally match them with a celeb or high-profile individual. If it's really a close look-alike, I usually wind up saying something to them. I'm always interested in whether they've been told by others that they look like "so & so"......most of the time, the answer is Yes. I saw a young man last week that looked just Jake Gyllenhal......and I told him so. His wife said to me, "Oh great, that's all he needs......he already has an ego the size of Texas." LOL. Oops.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this hub. I also happen to see a comment by you and realized we have a mutual LOVE for Jimmy Falon. He's my baby....really. No one was happier than I was when he got the Tonight Show spot....

Have a great New Year......Peace, Paula ..UP++++
